Chopper ride over NYC


Yesss finally this happened!! I had been waiting for this for a long time now and finally FlyNYON made it possible! Flying over the Manhattan Skyscrapers at 1500 feet above was like Dream-come-true!!

Website : FlyNYON

FlyNYON offers both doors-on and doors-off flights. Doors-off is one hell-of-a-ride, once-in-a-lifetime kind of experience. The view of NYC and Statue of Liberty at sunset is just breathtaking!


The doors-on flights have two durations: 12-15 mins and 24-27 mins and the doors-off flights have 16-19 mins and 30-33 mins flights. The prices differ depending on the duration and on basis of doors-off or doors-on flight. They have special sunset timings too and it's just for a little extra bucks.


The view covered is different for different duration times too. The 12-15 mins doors-on flight offers the view of the Downtown, Statue of Liberty, Jersey City and the Governor's Island. The 24-27 mins flight offers the complete view covers the entire NYC including huge and beautiful Central Park, Empire State, Times Square and the rest of the Uptown.

The doors-off experience riding over NYC is just mind-blowing. They have 16-19 mins and 30-33 mins doors-off flights. You need to step up your shoe selfie game for it 😉 (Head over to FlyNYON's website to see beautiful shoe selfies with NYC view).

The detailed itinerary of all the flights is mentioned on their website. The flight takes off from Kearny in New Jersey. One can take the Path to Journal Square and it's 8-10 mins Uber ride to their site. On arrival the process to get you checked in is really smooth. They usually request the passengers to arrive 1.5 hours before the flight to provide safety instructions and get them all set up for the flight.



They also have the facility for renting GoPRO and high end camera's for capturing the panoramic views of NYC's landmarks and even capturing the entire flight experience. FlyNYON offers these service through the year even during the winter. In case of bad weather, the flights might get reschedule.


Flying over NYC is one of the best ways to celebrate special occasions like birthdays, anniversaries and proposals. I got to witness a beautiful proposal too! If you are planning to fly, keep looking for offers on their website. During the October season, they had 40% off going on, on all their flights. I would definitely recommend following them on Instagram and keep looking for such discounts. The experience is definitely worth the money! Also once you fly with them, you become their frequent flyer and are eligible for 40% off on the next rides too.You can even gift someone rides. If you take any of their flights, I would love to hear about it.

PS: One of the best things about booking a flight with FlyNYON is you can book a ride without finalizing the dates for 14 months period!! Yess, so keep looking for an amazing discount and book a flight and you can select dates later anytime within a span of 14 months.

Happy flying!

One-Stop NYC Murals

Image
Ever since I have started living in New York, apart from the Times Square, I had always been fascinated by the beautiful graffiti walls and murals. New York is a very big city and so this holiday weekend I decided to cover one stretch of area. As the lazy-bum I am, I didn't want to keep hopping from one subway station to another looking for these murals (wanted to save metro swipes too :p). So here's how I planned it. I did some research and decided to visit an area where I would get as many as possible murals at 5 mins walk distance. So I decided to head to the Prince Street and Mott Street as they have a lot of murals at almost every street corners. One can reach there via the D or F train and get down at Broadway-Lafayette Street or via the J train and get down at Bowery Station.  So here are the 4 murals that I liked the most and that serve as the perfect backgrounds for clicking pictures. I checked these and many other murals out in my short 1 hour visit. All of

3 hours in San Francisco

"Leaving San Francisco is like saying goodbye to an old sweetheart. You want to linger as long as possible" - Walter Cronkite Having called New York and Mumbai my home, I never thought I would ever find any other city appealing. But boy, San Francisco stole my heart in just 3 hours. A while ago I had the opportunity of visiting San Francisco but had only couple hours to be all touristy before I had to fly back to New York. This was my first solo trip and I had so much fun exploring San Francisco in the limited hours that I had. I had done my research before hand so as to cover as many places I could and not waste time just traveling. So here's how I managed to make the most of those 3 hours in SF! Fisherman's Wharf  Location:  Fisherman's Wharf, San Francisco, CA This was the very first stop  I made during my exploration.   Fisherman’s Wharf is the northern-most point of San Francisco and one of the most touristy hotspots. It begins aroun
